Right... I use multiple browser windows as tab groups. Tried tree tabs, but since I keep one window per topic I rarely get enough tabs open to need them.
I'm still confused why people are so hell bent on using a single window exclusively. It's a natural way to group the tabs and it was there from day one!
Especially since modern desktop environments will have a gesture or something to give you a preview of all your open windows. What's annoying is that they all seem to shuffle the spatial order of the window previews whenever they feel like it.
Because there are smarter ways to group tabs than 20 browser windows.
I tried that, but eventually they just all blended so that now I've got three different windows with 50 of the same tabs open. Groups can have labels so that I can see which group is which.
That's what I do on a desktop, sure. Isn't an option on mobile though.
